To learn to wait

After Luke 11:9-13

To learn to wait

is to learn to trust

to believe

to endure

to deepen

to mature

To learn to wait

is to recognize

truth from desire

to distinguish

deserve from need

to understand

need is faith and

faith is showing up

and faith is learning

and to wait for him

to give us himself.

He knows before

we ask.
